Undoing a Check-Out

You can cancel a check-out without saving changes.

  1. Do one of the following:
    • To undo the checkout of the active design in SOLIDWORKS, click 3DEXPERIENCE > Undo Check Out.
    • To undo the checkout of the active design and any of its checked out referenced files in SOLIDWORKS, click 3DEXPERIENCE > Undo Check Out All.

      This option is only active it you have at least one other referenced file checked out.

    • To undo the checkout in Windows Explorer, right-click the checked out file or folder and click Undo Check Out.
  2. In the Undo Check Out dialog box, set column values as needed.

    See Undo Check Out Dialog Box.

    Important: Undo Checkout operation unlocks previously checked-out files and keeps changes locally. If changes need to be discarded, then Get operation needs to be performed.
